if you are what you eat, then i am a tomato from italy.
this is my popcorn.
Yesterday I combined a few of my favorite things, and served it on fresh bread for an appetizer.
in this order, place in bowl:
tomatoes {chop them up}
mozzarella {chopped up}
a few cloves of garlic, chopped, made into garlic confit. {saute with evoo for ten minutes}
good olive oil and balamic vingear - mix together.
fresh bread topped with tomato & mozz concoction.
ps: sorry no measurements ... i just use the mostly trusty eye.
none too pretty. but sure is delish.
i usually add fresh basil from my basil plant.
but haven't picked her out just yet. soon one will come home with me.
Happy Thursday!
love,
the italian tomato lover
Looks SO good!!! I could eat loads of tomatoes and mozzarella too!!!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favourites! Thought I haven't tried yet on bread but should give it a go soon!
ReplyDeleteYumm...bruschetta kind of!!! delish
ReplyDeletethat is my kind too!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so good!
ReplyDeleteYup! I do the same thing but put it over pasta too!v And add spinach, cause I have a love affair with spinach.
ReplyDeletesounds like a great snack, i would want to add gobs of fresh basil! :) xoxo jillian:: enter in TWO GIVEAWAYS over at cornflake dreams
ReplyDeleteTotally with you on that. Its amazing how incredibly delicious simple tomato dish can be:) Have a great Thursday
ReplyDeleteKisses
Such a healthy, simple and delicious snack. I love it. You had me at tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots too!
ReplyDeleteCherry tomatoes are amazing. I love mixing the yellow, orange and red babies with green basil for popping color. A yummy spin on this classic recipe is to rub the tomatoes on olive oil and skewer over a grill (toasting bread on the grill as well) until slightly charred. It tastes delish hot off the grill or refrigerated with the garlic confit for a few hours. Any leftover tomatoes can be pureed into a summertime gazpacho. I'm getting hungry...
ReplyDeleteplease bring an order this next week to BB.
ReplyDeleteor else i'm not going.
YUMMMzzz Love this!
ReplyDeleteThis looks soooo delicious! Tomato & mozeralla anything is my fav! And I bet it tastes better in Europe :)

ReplyDeletei basically eat that once a week. i thank the italians forever for inventing the tomato mozzarella combo. it's just so freaking good!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! I could eat tomato/basil/mozzarella every single day. It's my favorite flavor combo ever. Looks awesome!
